Home Depot and Lowes

If you are lucky (as we are in Minneapolis) Sears has an outlet store that stocks discontinued and slightly damaged appliances, sometimes at big discounts, depending on the amount of damage. At one time Sears sold over 50 percent of the major appliances in America. Other options include Best Buy, Home Depot and Lowes, along with many other smaller chains. Always do your homework and always buy on sale. The best deals can come when stores discontinue models or are moving out floor samples and returns.
